Lixy, I am always amazed by your sensitivity and your sense of caring. Thank you for sharing these things about our President. I had heard about the first .. namely the guards facing the President and maintaining their salute and have noticed it since, but much of what you said was new. I agree, it doesn't matter if you like him or not, "class" deserves respect and all the things you said are signs of real class.

By the way, glance in the mirror. There's another class act looking back at you. At least that's my opinion! Thanks.
